I swear Engram has been at Ole Miss for 15 years.

I never understand the total lack of utilizing a TE in Gus' offensive scheme.

Lutz was a beast in his scheme before. Not sure what has changed other than lack of talent at that position.

Pretty awesome name

Great name and a very good TE. However, we are a bit heavy on TE right now, so I'm not sure he will get enough chances to shine and be a top TE this year.

He does spend a lot of his time in the slot, also spends time at H-back and the classic tight end role.

Howard is the best true TE imo, but Engram will have bigger numbers. I feel like we've been waiting on Engram to REALLY breakout for a while now, he's just a tweener.

Howard would be a beast if he was at OM this year too, likely better than Engram. Both are pretty incredible assets.

Sprinkle will most likely have bigger numbers than both. I would be extremely surprised if he didn't.

After Oj Howards big game they would be stupid to not use him. I doubt he came back to be a non factor again.

Said everyone after his big game against LSU as a freshman.

At this point his career consists of three big plays and the rest of the time being a Non-factor for the most part.

Maybe this will be the year that Lane finally utilizes him but I wouldn't believe it until it actually happens.

No kidding. He owns it though. Always drops some sprinkles after he scores a TD.

Absolutely terrible. I can only imagine how much shite he's going to catch year one in the NFL.

Most likely? You're most likely to NOT know what you're going to get from your passing game. There are a lot of variables at play and all three are talented. But we know Ole Miss will throw the ball. Throw it to the tight end. And throw with a high level passer. Odds are Engram has better stats.

Kevin Sumlin can't even spell tight end.

I'll go with Howard

Not really. There are few coaches in the country that feature the TE as much as Bielema. For example, Sprinkle, as our #2 TE, led the SEC in TD's by TE's and was 5th in yards last year.

I'll take my chances that he will jump to #1 being the featured TE now that Hunter Henry is gone. It's not a big leap if it were to happen.

Howard is the most talented. Sprinkle will probably be the most productive.

Engram doesn't play TE

I can certainly see both sides. Lots of sec teams are set at TE
